Streamline edge operations with AI, GitOps, and zero-touch management
At Edge Field Day 3, VMware will showcase how VMware Edge Compute Stack streamlines edge operations, making it easier to manage applications and infrastructure at scale. The presentation will emphasize how edge AI can be integrated into business operations to boost efficiency and responsiveness, particularly in industries like retail and manufacturing.
The VMware team will demonstrate how GitOps simplifies the management of edge environments, allowing teams to automatically sync infrastructure and applications with a single source of truth, stored in a Git repository. This approach eliminates manual configurations and significantly reduces human error, making it easier to deploy and update thousands of edge sites.
One of the key highlights of the session will be zero-touch operations, which enable remote management of edge infrastructure without requiring physical intervention. This includes automated networking, security, and application management across diverse and often remote edge locations. These features are especially useful for businesses lacking on-site IT personnel.
Following a product overview, a detailed demonstration will showcase how VMware Edge Compute Stack operates in real-time. Attendees will see how simple it is to deploy edge infrastructure and applications, with a focus on zero-touch provisioning, pull-based updates, and the integrated security features that ensure robust protection at the edge. The demo will illustrate how businesses can maintain operations even in the face of connectivity challenges, ensuring that edge sites continue to run smoothly with minimal intervention.
